I am curious as to why you are so concerned about respect. See the following:

respect Definition re•spect (ri spekt&#8242;)transitive verb

1. to feel or show honor or esteem for; hold in high regard2. to consider or treat with deference or dutiful regard2. to show consideration for; avoid intruding upon or interfering with 3. to concern; relate to

What type if issue does Plankeye have with respect? Does Plankeye not respect others? If so why not? Do others not respect Plankeye? If so, what would cause them not to respect Plankeye?

I do not hold you in high esteem, nor will I treat you with dutiful regard Plankeye.

In you’re first post “Where is the respect in this hobby” K4ZNC asked you to “Earn your respect by providing a name and call.”

If Plankeye had any consideration for the good people in this forum Plankeye would have complied with the request. Instead Plankeye prefers to ignore it.

This leads me to believe that Plankeye does not have consideration or respect for the people in this forum.

Having said that, maybe it would be a good idea to stop intruding in this forum with inane topics. If what I have said causes Plankeye any concern or if Plankeye is having a difficult time relating to it, might I suggest you honor the request by K4ZNC and provide a name and call instead of hiding behind a screen name. Maybe then you will get a little RESPECT.

One has to earn respect. So, lets answer that question by looking at a definition of a term that some people have made very popular here.

Trolling: 1. Messages intended solely to annoy and/or offend other users by going against the clear nature of a board, topic or chat room.2. Deliberately provoking arguments on newsgroups or bulletin boards, with no other intent than to gain attention for the sake of attention.

If a person engages in trolling, as seems to be the case for this thread, there can be no respect earned, and certainly none given.

Hams aren't disrespectful. They accept each other like family even if most are ugly fat smelly lids that can't solder a PL259. What kind of dumb idiot thinks other people are disrespectful? I've never seen anyone be disrespectful no matter how stupid people are or how dumb their questions are.
